TOILET BOX.

, Application filed December 7, 1925. Serial No. 73,843.

This invention relates to combination toilet boxes and has for its primary object .the provision of a box adapted to carry toilet articles. such as a' comb, tooth brush, tooth paste and soap, all of which are adapted to it in a separate compartment designed and shaped to accommodate the shape o tne particular article associated therewith.

A further object is toprovide a box adapted to receive toilet articles and to retain the latter in -a sanitary condition, free from dust and foreign matter but exposed to atmospheric air for keeping the articles in a dry state.

' This invention also' consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illu;trated in the accompanying drawings and speciiically pointed out .in the appended claim.

In describingmy invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:

y Figure 1 is a perspective view of the'tray/ which for-ms a part of the present invention Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view through the box and tray therefor,

Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view therelthrou h.

Refrring to the drawings in detail the reference numeral 1 indicates the box of.

rectangular formation crimped in semi-circular formation adjacent the upper edge thereof to provide an exterior-ly arranged flange 2 adapted to accommodate and provide=a resting means for the lid 3, which has centrally secured thereto a ring 4 capable of swinging movement so that the same can be arranged to lie fiat upon the lid when not in use or raised to operative position as suggested in Figure 3. It will be obvious that the ring 4 is ada ted to be used as a handle for the lid whic is formed at appropriate places at opposite sides of said handle with a plurality of openings 5 so that air can be admitted to the. interior box as will be readily ap arent. The walls of the box can also be ormed with openings for the same urpose, as shown in Figure 2.

Adjacent t e flange 2, the walls of the box are further crimped to provide an inwardly extending flange 6 adapted to receive the tray 6 having centrally formed thereinA an opening 7 to provide a finger holding means for removing or replacing the tray on the iiange 6 within theI box. Adjacent vone longitudinal edge of the tray lthere is formed a substantial cross sectional V-shaped channel shaped receptacle 8 of'appropriate depth to receive a hair comb, and adjacent the channel shaped receptacle 8 there is a depression 9 forming a receptacle adapted to receive a tooth brush and which is sllghtly enlarged as at 10 to accommodate the bristle portion of the tooth brush. Disposed in the tray opposite the comb rece1vmg receptacle 8 is a tooth paste container recelving receptacle 11 and a soap receptacle 12 is al:o formed in the tray adjacent the -tooth paste receptacle and the tooth brush receptacle 9.

Frornthe above and disclosure as presented by the drawings it Will be obvious that the toilet box is ideal for keeping toilet articles in sanitary condition.

It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.

I desire it to be understood that I )navl make changes in the construction and in the combinationand arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim.

What I claim is: A rectangular box having perforations in its wall and crimped 'adjacent the upper edge thereof to provide an outwardly extending iiange, said box being further crimped adjacent the flange first mentioned to provide an interiorly extending iiange, a tray adapted to rest upon the interior extending flange and formed with a channel shaped receptacle at one longitudinal edge thereof, said receptacle being adapted to receive a hair comb, and said tray being further formed with. a tooth brush receptacle, a tooth paste retainer receptacle and a depression to receive a cake of soap and said tray being provided with a centrally disposed opening for the purpose specified.

In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
